Review Skenazy will find plenty of supporters for her contention that, in a world where the rights of chickens to roam freely are championed, it's time to liberate the kids. (The Wall Street Journal, April 24, 2009) Review "This book is a bubbly but potent corrective for the irrational fears that drive so many parents crazy. Skenazy is witty, perceptive, persuasive, and above all, sensible." Robert Needlman, M.D., coauthor, Dr Spocks Baby and Child Care, 8th Edition. "Free-Range Kids is the best kind of manifesto: smart, funny, rigorous, sane, impassioned, and bristling with common sense. If youre a parent, or planning to become one, read this book. You have nothing to loseapart from your anxiety." Carl Honoré, author, In Praise of Slowness and Under Pressure "Lenore Skenazy is a national hero." Mary Roach, author, Bonk and Stiff "Even scaredy-cat parents like myself now have a how-to manual on overcoming irrational suspicions and, finally, differentiating between an axe murderer and a play date!" David Harsanyi, syndicated columnist and author, Nanny State. "Free-Range Kids makes the perfect baby shower gift." Nancy McDermott, parenting blogger, Spiked Online "Moral insight without moralizinghow rare is that?" Amity Shlaes, author, The Forgotten Man "Keep Free-Range Kids on your bedstand next to your bible and the TV remote, and refer to as needed during the 11 o'clock news." Jordan Lite, news reporter, Scientific American online "Read this bookMommy said you could." Penn Jillette, Penn & Teller See all Editorial Reviews
